Whether you love him or despise him he is clearly a musician of excellent talent and neverending song-writing ability.

This album compiles together the best of his past works as well as some brillant new addittions, noteably 'Blue eyes Blue'.

There are many blues artists out there, and they cover a wide range of traditional to modern day blues styles, but i feel that Clapton really has brought them all together for the listener to enjoy onto this supurb album.
Although i personally feel it doent live up to the marvel of his 'Unplugged' album, this clearly is one to add to your blues and/or easy listening collection.
His simple style of playing and repeated riffs along with his emotional lead/blues breaks (most of which occur in the blues scale or minor pentatonic) accompany the terrific vocals and backing vocals to build up the whole effects on the album.

Its an album to listen to while sitting at home sipping a good bottle of red, yet its also an excellent album to play as background music over your mates house.
I'm sure all ages will be able to appreciate slowhands amazing quality and consistency from the young to the old, and this CD will clearly show to all his highlights.

Recomended to all, especially blues fans - but lets face it, if you love the blues there will always be a special place for him......next to your Jimi Hendrix and John Lee Hooker CD's.
